I found peace within, and myself, on one quiet day
And the beauty I found, took my breath away
In a world so rushed, no one takes time to look
It's like reading one chapter, in a very large book

You're only getting a small part, of what's really there
When, what you aren't seeing, is found everywhere
On that quiet day, I was looking for me
But I found so much more, that I could see

I let myself become one with nature, and to my eyes
Came the joy within, and that was quite a surprise
If you slow down from life, and take time to be
Wherever you go, there will be much more to see

You see, I found myself, and yet so much more
Because I saw things, that I never noticed before
If you should ever ask yourself “What Do You See?”
Ask yourself “Is There More That You Can Be?”

Growing in many ways, is seeing more than you did
before. Noticing things, being perceptive. I was quite
surprised to see things that have always been there, but
because I wasn't paying attention to them before, I saw
them now. Because of that, I was in tune, and would
always see them from now on. Do you see what I see?
What do you see?
